This was a thoroughly engaging thriller that touched on ridiculous a few times but not so much that it made me roll my eyes... too much. Instead, I had a great time reading it. I very much liked the story told from different perspectives.

Textbook good writing. I have to give this one the full five stars and a top place at my list of favourite books. Highly addictive and well written.

It may be strong for some people, especially parents, but it is worth it

I thought this was very slow and I honestly didn’t care. The first chapter was really good but then it got boring for like 60% because I did not care about this man cheating. Also I was just thinking about it and thinking of theories and I was right I don’t know how I guessed it but I did so I’m kind of like upset me because I actually really like that person. I do think you would like this if you like to see characters and how situations can affect them and the things they might do.

This was a fantastic thriller! So many twists and turns, things I never saw coming! I was in a bit of a reading slump so it took me a while to get into it, but once I started reading more I couldn’t put it down. I’ve never read anything by this author but now I need to!

I had a very hard time getting into this book at first but I ended up slowly beginning to enjoy it. I couldn't stand any of the characters but the plot/mystery was intriguing and I didn't see most of the twists coming.
